Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Isn't 'Mini book review.' anymore--pressure test

[Dan h <machine@epix.net>]

Get a copy of:  "How I Found Israel's Atom Bomb Factory"  by George William
Kittredge.  Printed by: Schooner Bay Printing Inc.  Rockport Maine  USA.   It's
a 320 page soft cover.  With events taking place today, the title may be a
little controversial but it's a book about Captain Kittredge's life, very little
on Israel.

About half of the book is about his designing, building and testing of the mini
subs he produced.  He made over forty subs so it's not an account of one mans
back yard tinkering.  He talks about deep water testing and pressure chamber
testing both.  Definitely worth the read for anyone that is actually going to
build.
